My Reaction to Douglas Lim and Dato Joey Yap's CNY CHIT CHAT

I respectfully disagree with some statements made and this is my rebuttal, respectfully submitted.

[@reneekeong6159]

Thank you Dr Jason Leong for being an intelligent comedian

[@JL-sw3sb]

I. used to believe FS and for years and no breakthrough and there was a time I spent thousands on these FS experts but my life was so screwed up I nearly took my own life. After I stopped, my life turned around. People even commented why I’m so lucky and so blessed. What we listen to is important. Take care everyone.

[@davidchin7721]

You are too beautiful to suicide. Take care and stay strong

[@francis_hiroshi]

@李谋 Limo 😂😂😂👍👏👏👏

[@yangsta9]

Feng Shui, live coach and business coach are all about pulling on your emotional strings to make money and be happy so while they are selling you on hopes and dreams they are the ones living there dream with the wealth

[@sufyanmnor1497]

I like Douglas (and you) very much but on this subject, I'm with you Dr Jason Leong.

[@lulusankong1708]

Jason Leong, got one chi very important. Chi bye

[@jaytoor9094]

I’m waiting patiently in front of my screen while eating mandarin oranges for this show.

[@thed3adgirlwalking]

Thank you. Everything I’m feeling about that video, you spelt it out accurately. Thank you.

[@angiechong3160]

Dr Jason Leong, the man of science is the best person to comment on this topic!! So logical and make so much sense!!

[@JohnLincolnUSA]

Good one doc…Respectfully, I would have done it a little differently …I would have gone full swing bat s@#it on the feng Shri guy but would have omitted your mentor and friend. I think your intent was noble as your gratitude is clearly visible as you made it a point to acknowledge and say so about 3 or 4 times. Still it could be perceived otherwise. It was not necessary as the point could have been made crystal clear without egging your friends math or other comments.

[@lvkay8491]

Who with the right mind will put a comedian together with fung shui master? Btw I think Joey Yap sounded more like a stand up comedian than a Fung Shui Master.😂😂😂

[@luvmefood]

Why need to be apologetic for speaking the truth? You are doing the right thing for calling out people who promote pseudoscience regardless of their association with you. Pseudoscience has given rise to the bs multi billion MLM health supplements industry and worse, anti vaxxers. Keep on doing what you're doing.

[@Elvinkun]

We all know he just wanna sell courses. It's his rice bowl. However,. Just know that, Nobody will help you, if IT doesn't benefit them as well. For example, IF a feng shui master can help you win a big sweep lottery, Why should they help you?, if that doesn't benefit them as well? they can just do it for themselves, right? Why would they want to take a portion of the win? Think about it. HOWEVER If they can "inspire " people how to use "feng shui" to manifest their dreams, by working hard,. Then , They would get "consultation fees" , "education fees" , "TIPS" (I'm sure you'll tip them when you achieve big money) , etc,. This will Also give them "status", "fame", "glory" and etc. Hence enhancing their reputation and enabling them to get more prospects. It's a better Win-Win for them.

[@andrewlimkienking]

Well said Jason ! Fengshui is nothing more than just cold reading....

[@wongc.t6264]

Well done Jason. Very educational

[@keanlooi]

How to tag Doug & Joey to this video..🤣🤣🤣 happy CNY!!

[@alvinlum123]

Feng Shui and religion both give people the power of positive thinking and motivation (placebo effect). Non of the religions have protected their followers from Covid. Through positive thinking it might help them to recover by praying. Feng Shui unable to do anything to prevent Covid, maybe a mask works better in this case.

[@OdinX123]

Maybe mask work better? Don't insult Mask. Mask have scientific evidence that it work to prevent airborne virus like covid 19 from transmitting , fungshui have nothing. Don't insult mask for all their hard work 😂😂

[@wincentchngwinnshern1826]

Placebo effect, in my opinion is science in a way. Psychology of a person has significant impact on a person well-being, thus affective their lives. Psychology = Science

[@alvinlum123]

@@wincentchngwinnshern1826 I see your point but placebo effect is an effect as a phenomenon in psychology. Everything in the world would be part of science pain, anger, fear and etc but what Jason meant some outcome being repeatable and measurable in science. Unfortunately there is nobody yet who could confirm the effects of feng shui in a clinical trial being repeatable and measurable. Clinical trial is a scientific way to prove a theory.

[@siangjamchi5194]

I am allergic to all Fengshui thingy and its so called masters. I skip or turn off whenever those "masters" on air and that include Douglas Lim's special segment on them.

[@itzdavidhoo]

Feng Shui is not science lol, it's superstition. Being a practitioner in a science related field, saying feng shui is science or "environmental science" is an insult to the entire scince umbrella

[@kinboon3138]

Just curious, do u believe in God?

[@itzdavidhoo]

@@kinboon3138 Short answer, no. If you're referring to how most people typicalview God as, a divine power that watches over us and intervenes, answer prayers, etc, then no. But if it's a God that may have started the whole cycle of nature, then im not rulling out the possibility that there may be a God. Just that im more convinced with how physics explains nature and how it came to be.

[@kinboon3138]

Did Jason thank Doug for getting him started in comedy! (And give up his career as a doctor and destroy asian parents dream).🤦‍♂️ Jason's parents must hate Doug. They will kill him when they find out...lol

[@kindface]

Depends on whether Jason actually graduated from his medical programme.

[@JamesYeang]

That Batu Api save was great. Sharp on your feet you are :)

[@eckeck1996]

Great video. i have one more to add - although nothing to do with the CHIT CHAT session... Have you noticed that every Feng Shui master has different interpretations given the same animal sign? It therefore cannot be based on science. For one particular sign, one master claims luck is bountiful while another claims its a 'sway' year.

[@adamcares5537]

May I know what camera you use for your outdoor scene ?

[@stephencloprog9989]

I just watched you on TV in Australia. I am also a clinician. It looks like you have a habit of calling out b.s. when you see it. I face this struggle often and I am still trying to find the best way of disproving/dismissing of b.s. in a way that does not offend in the short time I have with patients. I hope your friendship Douglas Lim is as strong as ever, as you obviously respect him dearly. Love your work!

[@hiucf]

Be mindful of your karma, do good and avoid evil karma. Karma will take care of the rest. No need to worry about fengshui. It is also not right to equal Chi to energy.... ancient Chinese use the term chi to as a general term that encompasses what they feel and its not meant to be a specific thing, it is the English translation that called it energy. When Chinese say your chi doesn't look good, it doesn't mean someone can see your energy, it merely means you look weak, liveless, unhealthy etc which can be measured by modern science. I believe you get this chi = energy very wrong and too narrowly using English interpretation.

[@gilbertteh5567]

come on Jason... its like METH not math

[@VanDrew9]

Going this video I don’t see Dr Jason Leong the comedian , but Dr Jason Leong , the Doctor . Good job ! Btw I ❤️ you the most on MACC 😉

Use ur own logic, even quantum entanglement or Mandela effects still can’t proof the property of particle or wave theory??

[@xeroeightfive085]

If energy can't be created, then who created Red Bull? It's the source of energy where comedian can do 5 show in a row 😂

[@christopheryang6416]

Jason, scientist uses the term energy to explain why things changes. It is a concept. It does not means that the energy concept cannot be widely use for non-measurable quantities or other contexts.

[@wincentchngwinnshern1826]

This, I agree. It would depends on which context you are speaking of. Words are just combination of few symbols with a pronounciation and meaning was given to the word by human. Therefore, context of the word "Energy" need to be defined first before comparison. My two cents.

[@RayMak]

So many Ling Zhi (Ganoderma) growing on the tree....

[@BHNEOH]

There is no excuse not to predict COVID-19… FS has got some explaining to do for their fans. Peace everyone.

[@engkok8296]

I believe it is based on data collection of occurrences by "ancient scientists" in the past and based on this, formula is derived to define them. It is similar to statistics, eg data of Covid occurrences is captured to plot a graph and its trend is determined. Is this science?

[@terryng1397]

Totally agreed !!!!

I download his free fengshui guide, but havent read yet tho 😂

[@drhafizdsportsscientist]

👋🏻.. muslims don't play prediction. From 4D to best date to get married, etc etc, 😁 we just can't. We see #fengshui as 1 of traditional chinese cultures. Trying to make people (especially chinese) incorporate surrounding into their daily living. Its not science per se nor its purest, but understanding the value put into creating this human:nature discipline 🤓 deserves appreciation. Its like fat bastard wearing santa clause costume in shopping mall & telling kids santa clause is real. 🤗 its sounds believably cute.

[@GTChow]

While I do agree that FS cannot be very convincingly proven and you made some very valid scientific points at that, the way you made fun of your friend here is unnecessary and in bad taste. Despite the emphasis on your gratitude and love for him, it comes across as sarcastic. He was on a public talk show, so certainly he will layan and give face to the FS practitioner. This video may get you some views, but perhaps at the expense of friendships

[@khoo5199]

I went to one Joey Yap free session. His advice on certain things could cause some immature people to make the wrong decisions. Example.. he said if there are 2 guys who love you and one has a six pack and one has 6 houses… of course you should pick the guy with 6 houses. I think this is really ajaran sesat. Some immature person might actually not think it through .. and might end up with an unhappy marriage.

[@somethink.g]

You are right. As if the only considerations are sick pack and houses. Forget those pseudoscience and we'll see the world in a bigger perspective

[@of8ightandse7en16]

u sounded stupid. metaphysics or not, you'd choose a guy with 6 house.

That’s why I watch your shows and not those by Douglas Lim- I don’t find him funny or clever. I also don’t think highly of Joey Yap…

I totally agree with you. I will always comment that the emperors of China would have ensured the best fengshui for their palaces and their burial plots, but yet their dynasties fall, one after another.

[@kinboon3138]

They did. But FS change every 10 years or so.

[@cb250nighthawk3]

Virtue ranks 1st. Then fate. Then FS. As time passed by, the succeeding emperors/kings lost the virtues of their predecessors, thus the downfall of the empires/dynasties. Besides other things, such as neglecting the plights of the subjects etc etc.

[@gykoh]

@@kinboon3138 I am sure that their offsprings and future generations, would have further used fengshui to enhance and strengthen their position, too.

[@somethink.g]

@@kinboon3138 so does knowledge. We also have to update our knowledge to adapt with the changing world. The knowledge/strategy 10 years ago cannot totally works today

[@kinboon3138]

​@@gykoh The emperor may protect their FS, but the rebel might or will damage it. Also, how good/ evil is the FS master. There is a quintessential Chinese saying that goes: first, destiny; second, luck; third, feng shui; forth "cumulative of deeds" (I think is virture); fifth Study. BTW, I am a banana man.

[@chiewata]

Cantonese got one saying, Fung Shui Master cheat you at least 8-10 years 🤣🤣🤣

[@yiyanlin284]

Like Chinese medicine, FS is not just the shit shat and only deals with heaty and cooling. We all believe in logic and science. But these 2 traditional knowledge are often misunderstood and horribly practiced by half baked personnels. You can operate on people without anaesthetic but with acupuncture. I could write more on personal encounters with FS or the process of trying to determine what's best for a house if you response to this funny boy. You're good. But don't put down the entirety of these 2 knowledge acquired for a long period of time from people who only knows how to read and speak English.

[@MrOrangeneko]

Science as we know it NOW is still a continuously and ongoing developing knowledge. There are still many things that science CANNOT explain in this world or universe. Just because Jason or the scientists cannot see, measure or quantify Qi, that doesn't mean that Qi doesn't exist. Try explain all the Newtonian ot Einstein theories to people in the dark ages or two thousand years ago, and probably a Jason living two thousand years ago would surely make a shit shat video to shoot down those "scientific theories". My point is, Jason, please don't jump the gun as if you know everything and generalise everything. I'm not a fan of Joey Yap anyway, and neither am I believe in all the shit that some half baked FS "masters" say. But that doesn't make me automatically not to believe in or have the right to ridicule the "science" of FS. There must be a better way to narrrate, describe and measure FS. I don't know how. Maybe the time will come in the future, much like when Newton and Eistein told the world about their respective theories.

[@aqdestinyv]

At least I see wisdom in both comments. So don’t comment on things you are not well verse of. Be curious and be adventurous enough to go deep into something that you disagree. May be one day you will find the beauty of what you don’t see today. Just by making fun of others and putting salt into others rice bowl look stupid and rude. May you be blessed 🙏

Too bad for him bro... after seeing 1 or 2 of this desperate feng shui episodes, it reinforced into my first impression of this snake oil shyster joey yap dato is nothing but a snake charming manipulator.... all nonsense

[@wongfuipeng3102]

this is good and a wake up for everyone that follow too much of superstitious which make their life harder and scarier. Live life simple. use common sense on everything is enough for our daily chores.

[@DeeKayDoubleUSee]

Common sense is no longer common these days and that's the unfortunate thing. Logical reasoning would be the way to go. If one is to live by all the things said in Feng Shui, die lah like that. I believe that whatever life brings us, is a matter of our karma whether good or bad and the becomings of life through our action. Remember Newton's 3rd Law of Motion? For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Thus, for everything we do today, consequences will eventually come one day. Just sharing my thoughts, no offence intended.

[@hunkyman8638]

Money spinner

[@TheShanty0403]

True. That’s why I stopped going to fortune teller

I was kinda concerned when I read the low fortune ratings for all categories for Rat in 2022, particularly the specific mention of possible risk of car accident as a certain Rat whom I know has the habit of playing videos on the handphone while driving.
